CUL-DE-SAC !

Belgium, France2026fiction18'Short film competition

Angels have never had any choice. Invisible to the human eye, they tirelessly keep the world moving – by powering machines, lighting up cities and heating homes, though no one even suspects they exist. When some of them decide to slip away, the daily order begins to crumble at its foundations and the city plunges into a blackout. This is a formally intriguing tale of invisible labour, rebellion and the fragility of a system that seems to last only as long as someone silently keeps it alive.
